This protein is a cell adhesion molecule involved in neuron-neuron adhesion, neurite fasciculation, outgrowth of neurites, etc.
Background
Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule, NCAM, also known as the cluster of differentiation CD56, is a hemophilic binding glycoprotein. It is a glycoprotein of Immunoglobulin (Ig) super family. At least 27 alternatively spliced NCAM mRNAs are produced, giving a wide diversity of NCAM isoforms NCAM gene is located at 11q22-q23. This glycoprotein is mainly expressed on the surface of neurons, glia, skeletal muscle and natural killer cells. NCAM has been implicated as having a role in cellcell adhesion, neurite outgrowth, synaptic plasticity, and learning and memory.
